Meaning?

People need to leave animals alone, period. Shame that we have been conditioned to eat meat, drink milk etc., to the point that it's difficult to give up. The Chinese wet markets are horrendous, but standard practices in American/western egg, meat and dairy farms are also unforgivable.

its easy to give up on meat and dairy products if one is so inclined. sugar is a tougher withdrawal. people are fed sugar everyday through products like sodas and flakes for breakfast leave alone chocolates and ice creams, yellow samaritan

I personally do not eat much sugar (no sodas, only unsweetened cereals, I will put a sprinkling of brown sugar on oatmeal), I do eat dark chocolate occasionally. I eat butter, cheese, sour cream, I don't drink milk but occasionally use it in cooking. I rarely eat prepared foods because of the excess amounts of sodium & sugars. The thing is, our bodies cannot tell the difference between the sugars we consume; refined sugars, sugars from fruits & veggies, honey, etc. it's all the same when your body digests it. I don't eat a lot of meat (a couple of times a week, I LOVE BACON) but I will never give it up. I know that the processing of meat products can be bad, but as long as I don't know the animal personally I can eat meat without feeling too bad.

I’ve been doing fine. I miss going out but I also enjoy my home so it’s not too bad. There could be worse things to do. I just struggle with boredom, I mean there’s only so many shows and movies to watch. Facetime exists though!

Luckily I have a garden and nice backyard so I usually spend my time in the sun. If I lived in an apartment I’d probably go insane.

people living in apartments are human too. struggling with boredom is way better than losing jobs and staying hungry. cancer and diabetes have killed more people than covid 19 has. this virus is a ego and pride breaker in disguise. so no more instagram and facetime, ruth handler

There are WAY too many humans in the world. Nature will keep fighting back via viruses until there is a major depopulation of humans on the planet. This won't be the last virus.

Not that I care. Most people are just selfish, annoying and a waste of time.

It seems like it's back. I came across an article that the company is out of stock because of demand. I'd never use that myself. Too crazy.

Did you notice the older lady with the silver hair that looked like she had one of those bowl cuts? Positively goofy looking, thanks Dorothy Hamill!
